Hey, what's going on guys, and welcome to episode 30 of the Physician

assistant boards dot-com podcast and today we're going to talk about rheumatoid

arthritis. Now rheumatoid arthritis is very, very common.

It's something that I see a lot of in clinical practice.

You know, I see it both with the injured patients,

with the non-insured patients, I've seen it in pregnancy.

So it's very common common it's something you're

going to encounter throughout your clinical practice through your rotations and

it's something that's very heavily tested on on your exams and the boards because

again the boards like to test on things that are common.

So we're going to go over rheumatoid arthritis today.

Before we go ahead and do that though, I just want to give you guys an update.

So over at physician assistant boards.com I

finished up the dermatology section the next section up to to get started on and

to complete is going to be infectious disease.

So once I'm able to finish infectious disease for you guys,

then I will have completed the entire Pants Blueprint

and it, you know, it took roughly around five months to get that done.

So I'll go back and make sure that there haven't been any changes, you know, within the last five months or so.

But at the time everything was written, everything was up to date, but I'll go ahead and go back and you know double check for you guys if you guys maybe see something that you think is questionable or maybe things have changed in the last five months because certainly things change all the time. Then please

shoot me an email over at Andrew Reed that's R.E. ID at position assistant

boards.com and I'll go ahead and get back to you guys and look that over for you as well.
